CS:GO Finland

We're very excited to announce that we have signed upcoming Finnish CS:GO team (previously under TORI). We haven't exactly had much luck recently in the Counter-Strike scene, with teams either not sticking together or not quite reaching their potential. Most recently, we've been keeping a keen eye on the ESEA Main division, entrusting our long-standing scouting network to monitor teams throughout Season 25.

The team reached the Playoffs and represented themselves well, finishing 1-1 after a solid victory over Bulgarian outfit Outlaws.

Gas - Hoody - NiNLeX - Chipo - Samppa

The squad will be competing in the Connection LAN Non-BYOC Qualifier where they will pit their skills against the very best in their home country. After keeping tabs on the team during the season just gone, we see them as right up there with Finland's top talent and are hopeful they make it to the event. Should the team make it, we fancy their chances in the eventual tournament.

Following on from their ESEA Main 25 campaign, they will be eager to build on their placement, along with CEVO Main as an added focus. Be sure to keep up-to-date with the team on their twitters:
